- Nov 07, 2020
I remember being young in the 1960s... we had a great sense of the future, a great big hope. This is what is missing in the youth today. This being able to dream and to change the world.

I like to be in a huis clos, as the French say - in one place. It's something that in general can create a bit of claustrophobia. But for me, claustrophobia becomes almost immediately claustrophilia. I love it!

I like that 3D is based on the fact that you look with two eyes, so two cameras imitate that.
- Late
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What happened in the late Fifties, early Sixties in French cinema was a fantastic revolution. I was in Italy, but completely in love with the nouvelle vague movement, and directors like Godard, Truffaut, Demy. 'The Dreamers' was a total homage to cinema and that love for it.

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't see my movies. I think it's healthier and safer to keep a bit of distance. I'm afraid to be disappointed.
- I Am
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I am in love with the idea of doing a movie in 3D. I think 3D would be great in a kind of realistic normal story without throwing objects to the camera, but using the 3D on the emotions in an intimate story.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I accept all interpretations of my films. The only reality is before the camera. Each film I make is kind of a return to poetry for me, or at least an attempt to create a poem.
- Dreams

- Nov 07, 2020
For American filmmakers, the Oscars is like a mystic thing. For me, it was being in a mirror of my dreams when I was dreaming of Hollywood when I was an adolescent.
- Francis
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What always made me proud - almost blushing with pride - is that Francis Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg all told me that 'The Conformist' is their first modern influence.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The conformist understands that the reason of his desperate look for conformism is that he realises he is different and that he never accepted his difference.
- Follow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was writing poems when I was young, you know, because my father was a poet, so it was absolutely normal to follow my father.
- Culture
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The problem in Hollywood is that they try to become the only kind of cinema in the world, okay? The imposition everywhere of a unique culture, which is Hollywood culture, and a unique way of life, which is the American way of life.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Dreamers' was because I really wanted to go back after I heard so much nonsense about '68. I wanted to go back to what for me was '68, when young people thought that they could change the world.
- Sometimes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Sometimes I think that I understand my movies after I make them. Really. I go very often off of instinct.
- Memory
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't see my movies. When you ask me about one of my movies, it just goes in my memory because maybe sometimes I confuse one for another. I think all movies are like sequences, which is the body of my work.
- Dream

I lived in a kind of dream of communism.
- Best
- |

English dialogue is the best in the world. So dry and direct. The Italian language is beautiful, but it is too literary.
- Beauty
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like being able to see an innocence in people. I see a lot of beauty in youth. Young people are in progress. Their faces and bodies and minds are constantly changing. It's exciting to capture that on film.
- Live

Commuting in a wheelchair is not easy. I live in a very old part of Rome. These cobbles everywhere... terrible! In London, it is the same. Every pavement is uneven.

Although some people call me anti-feminist, I know I wasn't because Germaine Greer supported me.
- Political
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you mention any ideological thing about shooting 'Last Tango in Paris,' I was thinking I was doing a political film.
- Diffuse
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think politics is a higher build in life. You know? If you diffuse under normal, common sense of a story, you make it political. If you choose a conventional way for a story, or refuse to use the conventional way, you make it political.
- Judging
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My father basically had two ways of judging anything. Either something was poetic or it wasn't.
- Done

- Nov 07, 2020
I started very, very young to make movies - I was 21. And at the age of 27, 28, I'd done already three movies.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I wanted to have a reaction from the audience. I wanted to be able to talk to somebody, and not be talking just to myself. That's when I did 'The Conformist,' 'Last Tango in Paris,' etc. And I found it was incredibly rewarding, something new.
